I am using backbone.js. The elements in my collection are just in the order that they are added. However, I want the ability to switch the position of elements. How do you do this?
You could do something like this:
var MyCollection = Backbone.Collection.extend({
swapItems : function(index1, index2) {
this.models[index1] = this.models.splice(index2, 1, this.models[index1])[0];
}
});
This accesses the models array directly then will swap the items specified by the indices.
